FINAL REVIEW OF NEVADA REPUBLICAN SENATE CANDIDATES

Sue Lowden: FACT - Currently serves as a Member of the Board of Directors and Secretary-Treasurer of Archon Corporation, a gaming and investment company (potentially will owe favors to the casino gaming industry if elected, just like Harry Reid does now). FACT - A "professional politician" since 1992, when she served as State Senator until 1996, upon which she was selected as Chairwoman of the Nevada Republican Party. FACT - Sue is on record as donating to the past Reid campaigns , even during her term as state Republican Party Chairwoman. During her term as State Senator, Sue Lowden has been quoted on several occasions by the Las Vegas and Reno newspapers of her support of Harry Reid's efforts to stop construction and use of Yucca Mountain. This displayed Lowden's ignorance, like Harry's, of the safety issues designed into Yucca Mountain, much less the boon to regional employment and businesses. As an engineer in the Radiological Control field, I've worked with commercial nuclear reactors for 18.5 years and now with DOE sites going thru decommissioning and remediation. So I have a firm understanding of the assets of Yucca Mountain, both in waste storage and potential reactor fuel reconstitution which could be sold. Does this sound like a Senator who would look out for the constituents of the state of Nevada in providing jobs? FACT -During a state Republican Party Convention, Chairwoman Lowden halted the convention in the middle of the delegate selection process, and then reconvened later which limited the number of proposed delegates to be submitted, which was a violation of state party convention rules. Can we say narcissitic?

SHARON ANGLE: FACT - Recently endorsed by the Nevada Concerned Citizens, whose Chairman Richard Ziser stated to the Review-Journal that his work to abolish gay marriage rights in Nevada (which I applaud him for) was also designed to ensure that gays would not come to Las Vegas, which would mean less revenue to be collected in LV. Should have kept your mouth shut that time, Richard; Las Vegas' casinos certainly appreciated that statement. So, where does Sharon stand on this in terms of how far she would take the gay marriage issue? She stands by her support of the Federal Marriage Amendment, which is a "pat" answer from anyone who claims to be conservative. FACT -In a town hall meeting last September, Sharon stated that custodial work was for immigrants because Americans will not do it. Can we say "elitist"? It has been logistically proven that over 8 million jobs have been taken over by immigrants (of which it is projected 90% are illegal) from American citizens who already had the jobs. So what is her true position regarding illegal immigration?: She says that, as a member of the state assembly, she authored legislation to safeguard our election process by requiring identification for voting in Nevada. However, she obviously didn't have the political strength to even get it considered for recommendation for committee review. FACT -Sharon Angle is a "professional politician", recently serving in the Nevada Assembly from 1999 to 2005 and then running for U.S. Representative of Nevada's 2nd district in 2006. At what point do We, the People realize that the "professional politicians" are the very culprits who have driven our country to the brink of Socialism, locally, within the state and in our federal government? FACT -In 2003, Angle sponsored legislation guided under the philosophy of Scientology for women's state prisons. The state's response (and rightfully so) was " "At a time when our kids might be going without books and teachers it would be impossible to justify spending money on an unproven massage, sauna and vitamin plan for prisoners. These gimmicky programs undermine successful rehabilitative programs". In 2003, the Nevada state budget was already operating in a deficit and Sharon wanted to spend taxpayers' money on "touchy-feely" programs for prisoners. I'll leave that judgment up to you.

DANNY TARKANIAN: FACT -Danny ran for the Clark County state Senate seat in 2004, only to lose by only 1900 votes in a Democratic swing district. In 2006, Danny ran for the Nevada Secretary of State ( a typical Democratic seat) and only lost by 40,000 votes out of over 560,000 votes cast (7%). As a private businessman and proven to fight against the odds, Danny is running a tight race with Sue Lowden and Sharon Angle for the Republican nominee as U.S. Senate. As compared to his opponents, Danny has stuck to his principles and values and not changed his stance on certain issues (not unlike his competition). Despite the fact that he is NOT a "professional politician", he is in the thick of this race and has led on many polls, including consistently polling as being able to beat Harry Reid in the general election. Danny has ran on his agenda as a Constitutionally-principled, morally ethical citizen and has won the support of many Tea Party-related groups within the state and like-minded citizens of Nevada. FACT -Danny has consistently ran against the Reid agenda, including the amnesty proposal and the Yucca Mountain issue (having realized as a businessman that Yucca Mountain is a boon for employment and benefits for the state). This is in contrast to his Republican opponents, where Sue Lowden proposes using Yucca mountain to develop methods for reducing the waste, while Danny has strongly stated how Yucca Mountain can be used for reducing waste and supporting available technology that is already tested and able to perform this intiative sucessfully; much less Sharon Angle who voted for a resolution in 2005 rejecting Yucca mountain as a dead-end nuclear dump; only to recently revamp her issues to support the use of Yucca Mountain. Sounds a little convenient for Sharon, if not also a bit "wishy-washy". Again, this points out the fact that Danny's stand on issues of importance to the citizens of Nevada and the United States have consistently been firm, fiscally and socially conservative, and has always recognized the need for a Constitutionally-principled, morally ethical legislator in Washington to help We, the People RESTORE OUR REPUBLIC.
